A Comparison of Supermassive Black Hole Mass of NGC 4151 Using Different Methods
Passer Journal, 2020 We found a new value of supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass in the middle of type 1 Seyfert, NGC 4151 galaxy. In this Study, the image of NGC 4151 galaxy was deprojected to face-on, using spiral galaxy of face-on, and applied IRAF to calculate the ...

Dynamical regularities in rotating galaxies [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2019 AbstractGalaxies are observed to obey a strict set of dynamical scaling relations. We review these relations for rotationally supported disk galaxies spanning many decades in mass, surface brightness, and gas content. The behavior of these widely varied systems can be summarized with a handful of empirical laws connected by a common acceleration scale.

The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We report VLA B-configuration observations of the H i 21 cm line on the close disk galaxy pair NGC 5595 and NGC 5597. At the angular resolution of the observations, ∼7.″1 × 4.″2, while most of the H i 21 cm in NGC 5595 and NGC 5597 has the same extent as

Kinematical Fluctuations Vary with Galaxy Surface Mass Density
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The Galaxy inner parts are generally considered to be optically symmetric, as well as kinematically symmetric for most massive early-type galaxies. At the lower-mass end, many galaxies contain lots of small patches in their velocity maps, causing their ...

Dynamical Friction on Satellite Galaxies [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2006 Abstract For a rigid model satellite, Chandrasekhar’s dynamical friction formula describes the orbital evolution quite accurately, when the Coulomb logarithm is chosen appropriately. However, it is not known if the orbital evolution of a real satellite with the internal degree of freedom can be described by the dynamical friction formula.

The Stability of Some Galaxy Disks is Still Perplexing
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The problem of how some disk galaxies avoid forming bars remains unsolved. Many galaxy models having reasonable properties continue to manifest vigorous instabilities that rapidly form strong bars and no widely accepted idea has yet been advanced to ...

Influence of Magnetic Fields on the Gas Rotation in the Galaxy NGC 6946
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Magnetic fields can play an important role in the energy balance and formation of gas structures in galaxies. However, their dynamical effect on the rotation curve of galaxies is immensely unexplored.

Formation of Transitional cE/UCD Galaxies through Massive/Dwarf Disc Galaxy Mergers
Galaxies, 2023 The dynamics of the merger of a dwarf disc galaxy with a massive spiral galaxy of the Milky Way type were studied in detail. The remnant of such interaction after numerous crossings of the satellite through the disc of the main galaxy was a compact ...
